  • "freedom is the only way..." Let's stop and think about what you've said for a second. By including this in your sarcastic statement you're implying that you disagree with it. Is Oppression and Tyrrany acceptable in some circumstances? If yes, then what are said circumstances?
  • Is there any doubt that the USA is the most powerful country in the world, millitarily? This has been so for a long time. I find it hard to beleive that the news of this has not reached our northern brothers in Canada.
  • You mock the pride americans have in thier country. Apropos, you do not know what it is to be from America: the most powerful country in the world. You do not know and never will know the pride that one can take in ones country when said country is known as the greatest and free-est. A person's nationality is a large part of what makes him or her who he or she is and if one cannot be proud of oneself, what is there left to be proud of?
I think that you need to re-evaluate your position on national pride as well as look into the information you think you know about what American citizens think about the "war on terror."

I'd say the song is just a joke from a movie, and you should get over it, but you seem to want a serious discussion.

1. You might want to consider the puppet totalitarian governments set up by the US in Latin America and the Middle East. The song comments on Americans being "freedom"-crazy, where their invasions of countries such as Iraq in the name of "freedom" can easily make the lives of the people living there worse.

2. There is little doubt, though China's military is numerically superior, and has nuclear ICBMs. Why did you mention this, anyway?

3. I'll never know the pride of being an American, probably because I try not to have blind faith in such things. Is the fact that you were lucky enough to be born in the USA something to be proud of? I'd rather be proud of my own acheivments. I'm glad I live in Australia, but I wouldnt say I'm proud of it. I just live here. A persons nationality doesnt have to be a large part of what makes them who they are, and being proud of your country is not being proud of yourself. Also, your ideas that the US is the "greatest" and "free-est" country in the world are arguable. Canadians have the freedom to marry someone of their own gender, and there is a smaller gap between rich and poor in Australia.

I think that you need to re-evaluate your position on national pride, and your idea of where your country fits in the world.

@Nickel

1 2 and 3. It's a theme song from Team America World Police, I
think it's funny, and don't take it seriously. However I will say
that I am more proud to be Canadian than I would be to be an American.

Is OPEC behind the rising Popsicle prices??? They claim they aren't, but look at how expensive Popsicles are! OPEC must be involved!

And what about the pinball embargo? Is OPEC controlling pinballs too? Whatever are we going to do?

Actually opec is behind the rise in price of virtually EVERYTHING. they control the price of the fuel source for every mode of transportation we have except coal-operated trains. therefore, when the price of OPEC fuel goes up, so does the price of transporting good, so the price of the goods goes up. from popsicles to pinball machines to the price of eggs in China. It's all dependent on fuel cost, which is controlled by OPEC.

I'm sure there are free ways to edit animated gifs, but all I've ever
used is Adobe ImageReady CS. If you open it up in that you can edit
each frame individually and save it back into animated form. IR is a
really useful and often overlooked program.

Just use open office. If you want people to read the documents you write just export them to pdf. I usually export everything to pdf anyway since it has a higher print quality.

Oh, and yes, Open Office has support for all those MS documents.
Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

Since this thread is a catch-all for all the random topics that don't quite deserve their own thread, here I go.

I am watching the sun set outside my office right now. I am lucky enough to get the corner office today, and the view is simply stunning.

The funny thing is that all I could think of is what light_environment setting to tweak to duplicate the lighting in a map.
